My Style Pill

In misc. · December 24, 2015

Like Mother, Like Daughter

Outfit Details:

On me: Illesteva Sunglasses | J.Crew Striped Turtleneck | Forever 21 Sweater (similar) | Zara Jeans (old) | Mary Kay Creme Lipstick in Rich Fig | On my Mom: Illesteva Sunglasses | J.Crew Striped Top | Max Studio Sweater (via T.J. Maxx) | Anthropologie Jeans

Everyone is always telling me that I am the spitting image of my Mom and that we have the same mannerisms and personality. Well, seeing that she is not only a beautiful and stylish woman, she is also one of the most kind, generous and funny people I know, so I take that as a major compliment! I feel so lucky to call her my Mother and best friend.

Isn’t she the cutest?! I wanted to treat her to an early Christmas present and had recently been sent a gift card from T.J. Maxx that was sent to me with the intent to treat a loved one who I felt deserve a special gift. I immediately thought of my Mom, so we drove over to a nearby T.J. Maxx and ended up find the most perfect gray cashmere sweater for her. Seattle tends to be pretty damp and chilly throughout the winter, so this cozy little number was just the piece to add to her wardrobe.

She has been wearing it nonstop since we got it and has been layering a cute striped top underneath it for fun. I took a cue from her and decided to dress up in a similar outfit. I told her to put on a pair of my sunglasses so we could match and we headed out to the front stoop to take a few photos for fun.(Thanks Dad!)

If you get a second, check out T.J.Maxx, Marshalls and HomeGoods’ new holiday campaign, Bringing Back the Holidays, which focuses on shopping for people, not for gifts. I love that it’s more about about finding that thoughtful present that will make for an incredibly meaningful moment this holiday, which was exactly what it was for my Mom and me. :) xo

GIFT GUIDE: Gifts For The Home

my style pill gift guide - for the home

My last and final section of this year’s gift guide is finally here! This roundup is one of my favorites because I am really into decorating my apartment right now and wanting to find little touches to make the place really feel homey and warm, so I basically want all these things for my place!

1. Bright Lights Paris

My talented friend Angie wrote this fantastic book about Paris. It covers everything from food to fashion to all the different neighborhoods you should visit. I highly recommend you check it out!

2. Uncommon Goods Custom Street Map Puzzle

I just think this is so cool because you can customize it to your home address and then put the pieces together, seeing your very own neighborhood come together!

3. Urban Outfitters Planter

I know I need more plants in my life, so this is a great jumping off point for the people you know that need some greenery in their home.

4. Uncommon Goods Bicycle Bookends

Just a cute little touch to add to any bookshelf.

5. Diptyque Mini Holiday Candle Set

My favorite candles – you can’t go wrong with these little gems. They all smell amazing!

6. Best of Ella Fitzgerald & Louis Armstrong CD

Classic crooners – this singing duo adds the perfect ambiance to any cocktail party.

7. Fresh SugarBath Lemon Soap

My Mom always has yummy smelling bars of soaps in our bathrooms, which are much more fun to display than your typical bottled hand soap.

8. BloomNation Flower Delivery

Who doesn’t love receiving flowers right to their office or doorstep?! Plus their arrangements are beautifully done.

9. Pendleton Blanket

Buffalo plaid is perfect for the holiday season, plus this cozy blanket is just what you need to curl up in when it starts to get chilly.

10. Uncommon Goods Neighborwoods Map Coasters

I love anything that has to do with the city that you live in, or are from, so I’ll most likely be ordering the Manhattan set for my coffee table. :)

DIY time! I saw this shirt and immediately was dra DIY time! I saw this shirt and immediately was drawn to the color and fabric but didn’t love the ruffle hem so decided to remove it by cutting it off, creating an intentional raw hem. My friend @landonmcgregor did something similar with a shirt he found while vintage shopping and I loved how it turned out. I think rolling up the sleeves and leaving it open over an off white bralette looks so pretty and is perfect for the warm summer months. What do you think? Would you try it?

Before I dive into talking about the outfits in th Before I dive into talking about the outfits in this Reel, I want to take a moment and talk about perfectionism and how it can potentially foil the best laid plans…if you let it.

Here’s what I’m talking about: As I was looking back at what I had just filmed, instead of seeing two cute outfit remix ideas, (both based around a $4 top I scored at Goodwill), I only saw the shelves behind me with messy piles of pants, unorganized hanging clothing that wasn’t color coordinated, and the damn black hanger on the floor that is peeking into my shot. 🙄

It hasn’t always been like this for me when it came to sharing my content, but over the years, as photos and video on IG and online became glossier and glossier, and more picture perfect, I found myself pulling back and not wanting to share unless everything was neat and perfectly “in place” before stepping in front of the camera. 

Today, I almost let the fact that my new closet set up that you see here, (which I had only just put together) wasn’t quite set up the way I imagined in my head, keep me from sharing outfits with you all, which is why you follow me in the first place! Jeez.

Anyway, I know that this type of issue isn’t incredibly serious, but I know that I love it when other people
open up and share about little things that they are dealing with, because it helps me feel like I’m
not alone with what I might be going through. So if I helped you release any perfectionism that you might be holding onto, then that is good enough for me. Thank you for coming to my TedTalk.

OK, now that I got that off my chest, let’s get into the really important stuff: the outfits!

Earlier today I wandered into Goodwill hoping to find some gems, and ended up leaving with this knit tank. I’m really pleased with it and love the color. It’s a dusty mauve and I immediately imagined paring it with my new bright purply-pink sleep set that I shared on here, yesterday. Then of course I had to turn the outfit into a remix and decided to try it on with my new white gauzy pants and some stacked sandals. All in all, I really am quite pleased with both looks! 

Which would you wear? 1 or 2?

xo,
Christine

They are high waisted, relaxed in fit and I will be wearing them until it becomes shorts weather, which is basically not until July. Because if you familiar with Seattle, you know we are about to enter into #juneuary in a week and a half. 😩
